Abstract
► The machinability of high strength Ti-10V-2Fe-3Al β-alloy is investigated using laser assistance. ► The effect of the laser on cutting force, cutting temperature and chip formation is discussed. ► Ti-10V-2Fe-3Al β-alloy is less machinable than traditional α/β-alloys with laser assistance. ► Cutting pressure is reduced by up to 50% with laser assistance, however, localised melting occurs.
